My grandpa flew YAK-9 and Polikarpov I-16 he respected the German pilots, they were much more experienced than our.

How the hell is it moving when the Blades are hardly moving ?

[StringBolt]

@Senyrar The camera's frame rate is nearly in sync with the rotation of the propeller. It's just an optical illusion.

There's a better one with a helicopter on youtube, just type "helicopter blades not moving"

@Senyrar Google => Stroboscopic effect

simulator game?



[dwb345]

No its a yak-9u

[hitmann2300]

@dwb345 @dwb345 That is NOT a YAK-9U! It's a YAK-3. You can tell by three distinguishing features, stop the tape at 0.38

1) Location of the Cockpit. The YAK-9U's was moved back slightly

2) The Rear Cockpit glass is not flared, it has a blunter shape then the 9U's which was flared back further for slipstream.

3) The Radiator cowl under the plane.

Also note that the plane is painted in the markings of the French Normandie Niemen squadron, which was famous for Flying the Yak-3

[demonikfunk]

@hitmann2300 also the air intakes on the wings are rectangular on a yak 9 plus the exaust pipes of a 9 are four long pipes as opposed to 6 short as seen in the yak 3 at 0.10

@hitmann2300

You know, on second glance, I think you might be right, mate. The cockpit positioning is more consistent with that of the Yak-3s than the late series Yak-9s. However, Yak-9Us also had the radiator cowl under the wing, along with the redesigned twin oil coolers. Also, what about the windscreen? Yak-3's had a one-piece windscreen, but the machine in this vid has segmented windscreen.

[N137LA]

It's a Yak-9UM, not a Yak-3. Trust me; a friend of mine owns two of these.

[russiaviation]

This one is definitely a YAK-3, not a Yak-9 !!!

[Treetop64]

@russiaviation

No, it's a Yak-9U. The Yak-3s and Yak-9Us look almost identical, but the windscreen on this plane gives it away as a Yak-9U. The Yak-3s had an unarmored, one-piece windscreen, whereas the Yak-9Us had a framed windscreen with the front pane being armored.

[LOOdNO]

Is there are Alisson????

[P214Stearman]

There areonly Allision in Yaks today.

[Gewrgio]

awesome !

[smileandlaugh123]

that's a Yak3 with French Normandie Niemen markings.

Yak9 has a oil cooler under its nose and a cockpit moved backwards.

[dwb345]

[Mastercorder]
